The three panellists are

Questions include:

  • What is your use case for cloud native storage and how do you manage stateful apps?
  • What are some of the day 2 challenges that you encountered?
  • Sample challenges 1: backups and data movement
  • Sample challenges 2: observability, debugging and monitoring
  • Sample challenges 3: lifecyle of application - updates & upgrades
